| Notes |
- It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gloria Barner, who left us peacefully on March 6th, 2025 at the age of 88 after a brief illness. Born on August 4, 1936 in Corning to Helen and "Frank" Eastwood, Gloria was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, whose presence touched the lives of all those who knew her.
She was a devout Christian woman who sought to embody Christ's teachings. A humble, patient, gentle, kind hearted, and charitable woman. Gloria enjoyed sewing, watching wildlife (especially the birds), reading, completing puzzles, and attending services at Quackenbush Hill Baptist Church. She loved to spend time with her family, and was happiest when they were all celebrating together. She also enjoyed frequently taking trips to the Barner family homestead "The Farm" in Pennsylvania with her family. She loved to remember ancestors on both sides of the family. She was a wealth of knowledge and an overflowing well of love.
Gloria is survived by her loving husband of 68 years, James Barner, children Jeffery (Paula) Barner, Daniel (Debbie) Barner, Nancy (Patrick) Dibala, Victoria (Michael) Burrell. She is also survived by 4 siblings, 13 grandchildren, their spouses, and 10 great-grandchildren, all of whom she loved dearly.
Greeting her in heaven are her mother and father, 3 siblings, and daughter Candace Ann Barner (January 25, 1960).
A small, private service will be held for the family. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Bampas House 170 E 1st St, Corning, NY 14830 in Gloria's memory. A special thank you to the staff and volunteers at Bampas House who made Gloria's final weeks peaceful and comfortable.
We will forever cherish the memories and love of Gloria.
